Jon The Bassist:
Pads arrived today, so time for a quick update. Original Haro seat put on. Alloy wheels, 175 cromo crank/pedals/spider/44T chainring all added from donor bike. It's now rideable as it is. Tyres are a bit dry and will be replaced with standard cheap black comp 3s soonish. Chain needs another link in, as the rear of the bike is now too short for me. Bars still feel low to me (I'm a 6 footer) so I might need a 1" flex fighter. Probably need a new seatpost but I can manage with what I've got for the moment. Frame is still a bit pitted, and I'm nearly through the chrome in some parts, but it's fine for racing with.







c/w original Yorks & Humberside numberplate from BiTD, Horbury Hotshots sticker just visible near the top left.


I need to get this bike ridden soon!

James Nada:
'tis looking faster with every post Jon!  :D

I'm looking forward to seeing it in action - you gonna make it to Lytham or are you getting your rocks off?

Jon The Bassist:
Cheers James - shame I'm not looking any faster! I've still not ridden this bike in anger at all, I must get some training done.
No unfortunately I can't do Lytham - I'd nothing at all planned for the original date as well...
